Part 3: Sliding Fee for Diagnostic and Complex Services and Your 340B Program

August 23, 2023

This webinar is part 3 of 3 in "The Sliding Fee Discount Program: Updates and Developments" webinar series. To purchase the full series, click here.


One of the most complicated aspects of the Sliding Fee Discount Program (SFDP) is its application to diagnostic services and complex procedures, such as restorative dental services and multi-visit treatments. Equally “thorny” is the application of the SFDP to the disbursement of prescription drugs under the 340B program. Part 3 of this webinar series will address the development and implementation of a Sliding Fee Discount Program and Related Schedule for diagnostic and complex services, including:

  • Diagnostic laboratory and radiological services
  • Professional services that include supplies and equipment, such as dental and vision care
  • Bundled services, such as Medication Assisted Treatment and Chronic Care Management

Participants will also explore the intricacies of developing and implementing a Sliding Fee Discount Schedule for both in-house pharmacies and contract pharmacy arrangements, as well as the latest HRSA approaches related to both options.

The on-demand version of this webinar series will be available for purchase one week after the conclusion of the live webinar series.
